Absolutely loving everything about HoT so far, but there is one thing so many of us were excited about that has turned out to be a false promise, and that is that we can finally salvage those ascended rings. Well, although technically we can, it makes no sense. An ascended salvage tool cost a gold (and a couple of relics but those don’t matter), and yields a small number of stabilising matrices, which currently sell on the tp for 19s. Nett 16s when costs taken out. Average loss of about 50s per go. So unless the economics change, we will end up just selling them to a merchant after all.
Not going to rush out and do that, of course, will wait to see how the value shifts, but this is not promising.
